Crypt::NSS 0.04

Crypt::NSS is a library with Perl bindings to NSS (Netscape Security Services).

SYNOPSIS

 # Using NSS for SSL connections from LWP
 use LWP;
 use Crypt::NSS config_dir => "$ENV{HOME}/.netscape";
 use Net::HTTPS;
 
 local @Net::HTTPS::ISA = qw(Net::NSS::SSL Net::HTTP::Methods);
 
 my $content = get("https://secure.mycompany.com");

This module provides an interface to Netscape Security Services (NSS) which is a set of libraries that Firefox, Thunderbird and several other applications uses for crypto, secure sockets, signing mail etc. NSS provides support for SSL v2 and v3, TLS, PKCS #5, PKCS #7, PKCS #11, PKCS #12, S/MIME, X.509 v3 certificates, and other security standards.

Currently this module only implements the SSL bits but in the future (patches welcome!!) most of NSS will be available via this module.
